Dear friends,
Does it makes difference in analysis if we create a datum point in creo parametric or in creo simulate?
since i need to use that datum point as a constraint for analysis.
Thanks in advance,
Paramesh
I don't believe it matters where the point is created.
If the point is only required for analysis, then creating it within Simulate avoids cluttering up the 'real' model tree.
thank u Jonathan Hodgson
It shouldn't matter, but keep in mind that you can't pattern or mirror datum points on the simulate side.
If you need a datum point to affect the mesh (whether created in Creo or Simulate), don't forget to make it a 'hard point' using Autogem controls otherwise it is ignored.
